Bilstien 5100 shocks

Can anyone tell me is there a top and bottom on Bilstien 5100 shocks or can they be mounted either way? I have always been told to mount the Body up and the Boot/Shaft end down.

For Bilstien shocks that is how you mount them,other shocks are reversed but not all.

Are these 5100 ment for SUV's or trucks?

I ask becuase that will have a huge effect on how well they work for our set up.

I know the Tacoma boys love these 5100 series shocks.

Hi all, the Bilstien 5100 I ordered arrived today. I fitted them and took the Jeep for a drive and I like them. They cost $80.00usd each and I got them from JBA.
